    Quick Motherboard Battery question

    Is there a standard battery size/type for the motherboard CMOS battery? I need to replace one and don't have it with me, and Radio Shack has several that look like they could be the right type.

    This is for a PC Chips Slot 1/Socket 370 MB if it matters. I don't have the exact model available right now.

    Thanks for any help!

    It should be a generic type battery for a board like that. I would ask for a cmos battery at radio shack and if they ask for what type of proc, say Intel or AMD based on what you got. It should be generic.

    You are vastly over estimating the staff at my local Radio Shack. They didn't know computers had batteries.
